I don't understand what you mean by "permissions of mount and umount".

Curtis' problem turned out to be that somehow the suid bit of mount and umount got turned off, thus he can't mount/umount outside of root.

and still I can't get the M$ OS partition to mount or umount...even as root.

What type of partition, Fat32 or NTFS? What errors does: mount -t vfat <device> or mount -t ntfs <device> yields? Charles -- "Absolutely nothing should be concluded from these figures except that no conclusion can be drawn from them." (By Joseph L. Brothers, Linux/PowerPC Project)
